WTF is up with nosey neighbors who are always up in your shit!?

It' one thing to care about your property and your neighborhood and it's another to care to the point that you obsess on other people over the stupidest things.

We used to have a woman who lived 2 houses down and she was consumed with legislating how my family should conduct our lives. She was always picking at things and making a fuss and a stink.

When I moved back home for the first time I brought an entertaiment unit, you know the things that hold a TV and VCR etc..., and I put the unit right in front of our garage. I then went back to my apartment to pick up more stuff and in the time that I was gone to the time I got back, this bitch came over to my house and told my mom that she would help her get rid of the trash in front of our garage. My mom asked her what she was talking about and she pointed to the entertainment unit. I wasn't gone but 2 hours and only put it there until I moved all my stuff and could bring it into the house. And to boot the entertainment unit was brand new!!! Here this bitch is coming around being nosey and looking at my stuff as trash, simply because it was in front of the garage. Unfortunately she was the block captain for the neighborhood watch so she felt she was justified in meddling. FUCK THAT BITCH!

Our current neighbors moved because their landlady is a Kook! They replaced a toilet that was broken, mind you they paid for it with their own money and when the landlady found out, she flipped out and said that they vandalized her house. These were the best neighbors anyone could ask for. This landlady is another busy body.

Does anybody else live next to a fuckin busy body?

My neighbors are loud, neurotic louts, but at least they mind their own. I'd hate to live next to a Gladys Kravitz, but if I did, I'd probably put on a few "performances" just to give her nosy ass something to talk about.

We used to live next to this elder copple and they were both
at home 24/7 making each other's lives miserable. And when
they were done fighting, he would go to bed and she would
stand at the window every single minute of the day and nite.

After 6 years we were convinced she must be a vampire since
she was ALWAYS at that goddamn window. She slept 30 minutes
a day or something.

Now, having her stare into your face when you went out and
came back home was one thing, but a lot of times, when I got
home in the dead of night over the weekend, she'd appear out
of the shades of the bushes next to our house and start to
moan and cry about how fucked up her life was and how she
hated her children. Once she was done with that she'd start
to slag me and my family off and praising her own children
again. Weird. She used to scare the fuck out of me since
she looked like a freakin' ghost in the end, walking around
all our gardens in the street in her nightgown.

Many years ago she used to live in the biggest house at the
top of the road and she still wanted to go back there so in
the middle of the night she used to sneak into those folks
garden and start washing the windows. I kid you not. First
time that new owner saw her, he got such a scare they had
to call an ambulance and take him to hospital since the poor
man's heart nearly gave in.

To make matters worse, some punk who owned a square 100 mtrs
of land behind our street, sold that land to a fucking [can
you believe it] CIRCUS!!! It was hell. They would have all
their machines and trucks and shit out there day and
nite and make so much noise you'd be lucky to get 4 hours
sleep at night. How the city counsel could have ever appr
of that is beyond me.

We tried to extend our kitchen and we were held back by
petty paperpushers for 6 month cos the constructionplan
showed a wall that went 1.5 centimeters above the legal
height.

Yet, it was alright for a freakin funfair to move in behind
us and build a 15 meter high airplane hangar for their
whole circus things. Thank god they were usually gone for
the summer, but during autumn and winter they'd be there
constantly. And when they were gone during the summer, the
building was turned into some community centre with parties
every weekend. You know, hillbilly drinkfests. Eat as much
bratwurst as you can or stick an egg up your crack and cross
the street without breaking it.

AAARGH.

Now we live next to a couple of very nice JW's and are very
rarely bothered by anything. It's bliss, not knowing or
hearing your neighbours. Sheer bliss.

A fucking circus! Damn I laughed so hard at this. Sorry to hear you had to deal with it. Isn't it a bitch that the city can stop your plans for an addition over a minute measurement yet allow a fucking airplane hangar to be construced right outside your bedroom window?

And that lady sounds very scary indeed!

Indeed. The way they operate is beyond human understanding.
First they simply disapprove of everyone's building plans,
however minute and consequently they gave the OK on a new
City Bank being put up on our town square. There are a lot
of supermarkets and grocery stores and all located at that
square and the square is the only place people can park.

So as logic would have it, they approve for the Bank to be
so huge that it is taller than the church steeple and with
a base to big it covers 2/3 of the square.

I feel sorry for the people who live close cause there are
hundreds of cars parked on either side of their streets all
week long now.

I always have to laugh when I drive up to our town again
after going out and for miles away, before you even see
the town itself, you can see the top of that bank building.
It's absurd.

Busybodies in general get on my last friggin' nerve. Can't stand 'em. Fortunately I don't live next to anyone like that. It's usually someone I work with. But not lately.
This post not for the wimp contingent. All whiny wusses avert your eyes.

I have two neighbors who sleep all day. As 11:00PM comes they are making so much noise I can't sleep. They do not play loud music, rather they sound like they are tearing down the walls or dragging tons of furniture across the floor. This happens every few nights between 11PM and 3Am.

I even confronted both of them and they tell me, " What noise, noise, I'm not making noise."

Fuck.

Sorry that's not nice, Supa, just go up to her and speak to her in a nice and calm voice with a crazy ass look on your face ..."girlfriend, if you don't keep yo nosy nose out my video, I'm gonna train you like a puppy dog -- and I hate dogs!"

That should keep her away for a minute smile

Oh I have many stories to tell. I had a neighbor once, who would always sit on the porch, smoking a cigarette. You couldn't say hello to her without getting a run down of her whole day. She would always remind me when it was trash day. That would piss me off, because I knew it was trash day, I had the same trash day for years! Just because we had just moved in to that apartment, she felt she needed to remind us every fucking week!

My current neighbors have DJ equipment and they used to play music REALLY loud all the time. I mean, I couldn't even watch a movie loud enough because you could hear the boom-boom-boom-boom during the quiet moments of the film. They had to yell at each other to communicate. I would say, hey, that music was too loud and they would be like "Oh really?" Yeah, you fucking moron! If you have to yell to be heard by someone in the same room as you, your music is too fucking loud!!!

Plus, their door is right next to our living room window, so when they would sit outside and talk, (loud), it would make me sick with anger because I can't tune that shit out. It's like they needed attention so bad, they had to advertise their lives. It was so fucking annoying. They are better now. Thank God.

Once on a sunday morning I was siting at my computer and they were outside, again. I heard a thump and she said "Oouuuch," not too loud, but I could hear it. Then she said she hit her knee on the table that they put out there to sit at. I yelled "Good!" and ever since then they were quieter. They finally got the hint that I can hear everything they say when they sit outside my window and chit chat. Fucking morons.

Does your neighbor trim her front grass with
scissors
??

She's 80 yrs old, and still gets around like she's
only midlife. She's got a hyperactive thyroid that
keeps her MOVING all the time.

She's always dragging me into her house to show
me her latest purchase, and she ALWAYS tells me
how much she paid for it...lol

Her and her son, he's 55 and single (eh hem), have
entirely too much money, so much that they overpay
for just about everything that they tell me about.

WTF? Who pays $15,000 for a roof? $7,000 for carpeting?

Her son's bedroom window is directly across from ours.
He makes it a habit to walk around nude in his room with
the blinds drawn...we're just not sure if he's doing it
for MINE or MY WIFES sake...wink
Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.

My current neighbor is incredibly loud, smokes pot (I can smell it through the floors) plays loud music all hours of the night including during the week (I have asked him to turn it down and he has told me 1) that he pays more rent than I do and he can do what he wants 2) to fuck off) has trashed the basement that is a public area for the house, lets his cats poop in the basement (while my cats are confined to my flat) doesn't take care of the lawn/snow removal (which is part of the rental agreement) and our mail wasn't delivered for several days in March and the city has posted notices saying that he is in violation of city code (for the lawn being a mess) and would be fined. He's drunk quite a bit and has told me that he suffers from panic attacks and blackouts. He has hit his girlfriend and called her daughter a 'junglebunny' (the girl is 12 years old and biracial. Hearing this broke my heart and I hope she wasn't home when it happened)
I have spoken with my landlord on many occasions about this and he came over last weekend after the crazy neighbor shoved a broomstick in my boyfriend's face and threatened to kill him because his girlfriend overheard us talking about how they had trashed the basement. He had been blasting Metallica in the basement to wake us up and told my b/f that he had been downstairs waiting for him all night. Then he kept saying 'is this clean enough for you Air Force?' (my b/f is in the reserves) and my b/f said that all he wanted to do is get our laundry from the dryer. Then the neighbor said 'that's all you'd better be doing'
When the landlord came over he said he'd act as a mediator between us and the crazy one, but nothing has changed except he cleaned the basement.
The neighbor across the street told us that he can hear the crazy bastard's loud ass all the way across the street...and the guy was on the phone IN HIS HOUSE yelling something about 'I ain't gonna take no Prozac!'
We gotta move...and soon!

We have one neighbor in the building of our duplex apartment. There are four units in our building and the lady who lives right next to us is a major busy body... She is all over the place. Infact whenever we open our back window downstairs in the summer. She asks herself in and talks to my wife luvy for a good 15 minutes and won't leave and asks all sorts of questions. We have found her lookin in our back window when it was open and trying to when the curtain is closed... She just gets on ya nerves. She used to let her daughter who is a little sweetie pie knock on the downstairs back window constantly, lookin for our son... to come out and play. Which is cool, but not all the time. The kid needs to chill out for a while and eat, take baths. Stuff like that. The other 3 tenants of the duplex are real cool. The people on the other end are a nice latin couple with a baby girl who's family owns a local restaurant... The other neighbors just like to make love every night... mr.green

I have no neighbors like that. The two houses closest to mine, no one lives in. The two houses next closest, the people are very quiet and never bother us at all.
